? This worksheet works best to reinforce sales tax.

? Make sure that students bubble in their answers for the front page (#1-7) and the back page (#8-14). The bubbles allow students to check their answers and results in a more confident student. In addition, it makes it a lot easier for you to do a quick "checking for understanding" when you have the answer key and can compare the bubbles shaded in.

? Make sure that students show their work! Space is given so that students can demonstrate their knowledge of the concept. I do not give students credit if they do not show their work. Also, students need to give a nice reflection (2-3 sentences)!

? You can decide if you want to use the score in the top left.
